Thank you for helping us provide such a great music and movement program for the children at our Centre. We have had very positive feedback from the children, staff and families since Melissa began and the children all enjoy the program. The music, props and interactive experiences all contribute to providing an interesting and engaging activity.

Jodie Field began music sessions at the Bendigo Special Developmental School following a recommendation of a staff member who had taken her child to a birthday party where hey dee ho music was a feature. The Bendigo Special Developmental School caters for students aged from 5 to 18, who have a moderate to severe intellectual disability and your programs have been extremely beneficial in bringing enjoyment to our wonderful children.

Hey dee ho music has been running a weekly program for our three and four year old kinder and prekinder children all year. It has become a weekly highlight and I highly recommend the program to other Centre's. From a Director's standpoint I find the program educational, stimulating, captivating, age appropriate and run to a standard of excellence.

I am a mum of a son with Autism and non-verbal. I have been watching your useful YouTube song channels while I was looking for key word sign song tutorials. Unfortunately I could see many American Sign Language on YouTube but hardly could find videos with Auslan or key word sign.

I really appreciate you have been sharing songs with key word signs so a parent like me can watch and sing along with my children. Thank you!
